Bloomington ---Troopers from the Bloomington Post have been busy responding to various calls for service over the past 24 hours. The Bloomington District is comprised of Monroe, Morgan, Greene, Owen, Lawrence and Brown counties.

The Bloomington District utilized all available manpower to ensure the safety of the motoring public and maintained coverage throughout the storm.

Trouble spots for motorists during the storm included State Road 37 at Vernal Pike in Bloomington, SR 252 at Kramer Town Loop and SR 252 at SR 37 (both in Morgan County) and SR 46 West of Nashville.
